Bugaboo Comfort Transport Bag

Product Information

PADDED VERSIONS: The padded versions have upholstery-grade padding inside and are lined in robust nylon. This padding and lining offer additional protection from both the bumps and scrapes of the baggage handling systems and from the elements helping to keep the contents dry and clean. The wheel treads are rubber and other wheel components are sturdy plastic. There is spring suspension on all four wheels. We haven’t had problems with the quality of the brake. Sometimes the brake doesn’t immediately engage when we press it the first time. If you live around cobbled streets then this isn’t the stroller for you, as it is definitely more suited to city pavements but the 4 wheel suspension means it can handle uneven ground too.

Once folded, the stroller is a very compact 45 x 23 x 54 cm which means it fits in most car boots (we have a Ford S Max 7 seater and with all 7 seats up I could fit in several folded Butterflys). This bag is designed to hold the model suggested for sizing purposes. Chassis and seat. Not the carrycot elements if applicable. We sell separate carrycot bags. Yes, there is a release button and a fold button but it is easy to push both of them at the same time with the same hand. Most strollers use a similar mechanism. All stroller manufacturers recommend that you keep children several feet away when folding and unfolding strollers.The canopy can be unzipped to reveal a large mesh section that allows you to see your baby. This pekaboo window also provides a significant amount of ventilation. True. There is a nice carry strap but it gets sandwiched inside the frame when the stroller is folded. To open the Butterfly you press the white release button on the handle and squeeze the fold button while pulling the stroller upward to an unfolded position.

There is a safety strap attached to the handle you can use to keep the stroller from running away from you, but is really only necessary on hills. The Butterfly pushchair also has a really spacious basket which holds 8kg, while the Bee6 holds 4kg (although still less than the impressive 10kg capacity for the Bugaboo Dragonfly) We unboxed and set up the Bugaboo in 3 minutes flat. Fortunately, it was easy because the user manual isn’t organized well. Bugaboo Butterfly’s single brake pedal It is among the smallest strollers folded at 2.0 cubic feet, but as we mentioned above, it is 3 inches wider than some airlines allow in an overhead compartment. Babyzen YoYo2 left, Bugaboo Butterfly center, and Joolz Aer right. The Butterfly is truly a one-hand fold whereas the YoYo2 requires two hands to start the folding process and is a bit complicated even after that.

With the sun canopy fully extended, kids’ upper bodies are fully protected. The canopy doesn’t extend over their legs or feet so you’ll still need sunscreen at times. We folded 20 different strollers many times over and found the Bugaboo to be exceptionally easy to fold. Please do not dishonestly try to claim the bag was received defective and/or never used. With the greatest of respect, we are not a bag hire company. In the past, we have even had bags returned with airline tags inside when the customer stated they had not used the bag! We are an honest and decent company, so please extend us the same courtesy. With Bugaboo making it clear that the Butterfly stroller isn’t a replacement for its popular city favourite the Bee6, there are some clear differences between both pushchairs.

Both of these strollers receive our buy recommendation and scored in the top 3 out of 20 along with the Zoe Tour+. Choosing one over the other comes down to preference. The stroller seat is 22 inches high, which is higher than any other stroller we tested. It accommodates children up to 4 years old or 50 lbs. It is sized where most bigger kids will fit comfortably. Quality and Safety Our bags are designed differently to others and are manufactured with baggage handling systems in mind. We only use industrial zips and fittings and all straps have breaking strains well in excess of weights of prams, contents (or anything likely to be lifted by a human being). The Butterfly’s seat recline mechanism is faster and easier to use, as well as its harness adjustment.NOTE: These bags are not armoured or indestructible and will not prevent crushing or other similar damages from occurring. They are simply to assist you to take your own stroller and other essentials abroad etc. which is done at your own risk. The Joolz is 13.4 lbs vs the Butterfly’s 16.1 lbs. The Joolz Aerfolds to just 1.8 cubic feet which is a tad smaller than the Butterfly’s 2.0 cubic feet. Neither are guaranteed to be accepted by airlines to fit in the overhead bin, although both qualify for some airlines. These bags are ergonomically designed to be carried. With good shoulder straps and/or carry handles we have tried to make our bags as easy to carry as possible. They are NOT designed to be dragged along as this can cause scuff marks and/or damage. If carried as designed your bag will last way beyond pushchair/car seat travel days and become a nice sized bag for days on the beach. TOP TIP . Make the baggage handler's job easier by NOT overloading the bag. We know they are spacious bags but don’t take the sink along with you!
